Hello Chad,

A f150 crank pulley will get you to 8LBS or so. Allot of guys run them and are very happy with the outcome.

If you want more than 8, then you will be looking at a custom pulley.

Get the F150 crank pulley the stock water pump pulley should work fine.

This should put you right at 8#

Do a search on the site to find the proper crank pulley for your application.

That is Great Advice Ian, and 93notch!

I too agree! Don't mess with the pulley on the head unit of the supercharger! It will void your 3 year warranty! Just get the
F-150 crank pulley off of a 5.0 Liter v-8 truck and just stick with your stock water pump pulley!

You should notice an IMMEDIATE difference! Be sure to ask any questions you might have about your novi 1000 and you car! Tuning, Ideas, whatever! Thats what this board is here for!

This board is comprised of many different wells of knowledge!

Hope this helps!

I am considering buying a Novi 1000.
This will be my mods.
Twisted Wedge heads w/ stage 1 port by Fox lake
Performer RPM intake
70mm throttle body
TFS stage 1 cam
24lb injectors
Pro M 77mm MAF
MSD 6AL and Blaster coil
If I went with the Novi 1000 and a F150 crank pulley what kinda rwhp should I see?

- Twisted Wedge heads w/ stage 1 port
Good flowing heads, will make good power for the money. Realize that you will have to install custom length pushrods and an adjustable valvetrain, these heads are far from being a bolt-on, unlike certain similar heads like Edelbrocks or AFRs. And you can't go much bigger on the cam in the future without notched pistons.

- Performer RPM intake
A pretty good intake, but I actually prefer the standard Performer 5.0 intake- it is a little harder to install but it has better cylinder to cylinder flow balance, due to the RPM having several pinched runners (bolt bosses that the 5.0 doesn't have). Since you are running TFS heads, you might want to consider a TFS intake as a good matchup. If you already have the RPM intake, no worries, it will work fine for you.

- 70mm throttle body
Some folks have noted some trouble matching a standard blower discharge tube to the big TBs. I'd wager a 65mm would be plenty for your app. but again, if you already have it, it will work fine.

- TFS stage 1 cam
No problems here, a good buy, should work nicely.

- 24lb injectors
On the small side if you will be running the F150 pulley. If you don't have them yet, go for 30s or 42s.

- Pro M 77mm MAF
NO problems here, but I would avoid a MAF calibrated by Pro-M for a blower app, as they are really calibrated way too rich. A good chip tune or eec-tuner works wonders when running aftermarket MAFs & big injectors.

- MSD 6AL and Blaster coil
I humbly suggest a Crane HI6 instead. More reliable, dial-adjustable rev limiter, cheaper boost retard option than MSD.

- If I went with the Novi 1000 and a F150 crank pulley what kinda rwhp should I see?

I'll wager 411 rwhp. I'm cheating, that's what a friend of mine is making with same setup, except e303 cam, GT40 intake, and 9psi Powerdyne.

I already have the parts w/ the exception of the intake and throttle body. I currently have the cobra intake and 65mm throttle body. I have everything else listed. the motor is actually in the car now. It fells strong but now I want a charger. i am thinking of the novi 1000 ( as i just found a heck of a deal on brand new unit) or a 9 psi powerdyne that I can get used for under $1000. i want something that will make good power.

Personally I would go with the Novi 1000 over the used Powerdyne unit. The capability and the quality of the the Paxton product is well above that of the Powerdyne, IMHO. Do some research on the powerdyne and you'll see what I mean, try a search on the Corral for "powerdyne".
